i guess in future i will explicitly list the options in preferential order
{as you explaining in detail how your users send from africanexpatsradio.com address's is always preferred to us guessing from looking at your emails to us}
but currently i see you seem to be sending from 217.37.29.17
so assuming this is the only you/your-provider you will use to send your email from and assuming this ip is static
{i use you/your-provider as i cannot possibly determine if you are the provider or do you buy service from this unprofessionally setup outfit}
this host has a lot of negative reputation markers
so even if your SPF is is perfect its unlikely to be checked by all, many will refuse on your/your-providers poor server setup

ok the details
A the FQRDNS record of your/your-providers host is generic thus refused by many host217-37-29-17.in-addr.btopenworld.com == 217.37.29.17
{suggested fix set it to xxxxxx.your/your-providers-domain where xxxxxx is a name dedicated to ptr use and pointed at 217.37.29.17 also}
{eg1 pmct-01.gateway.2wire.net}
B the helo/ehlo identity used by you/your-provider is non-existant , thus refused by most isps/spamfilters for RFC non-compliance
{suggested fix set it to yyyyyy.your/your-providers-domain where yyyyyy is a name dedicated to helo/ehlo use and pointed at 217.37.29.17 also}
{eg1 pmct1.gateway.2wire.net, ie just setup the helo in dns}
C assuming steps A and B completed by you/your-provider
host/domain SPF-record
xxxxxx.your/your-providers-domain "v=spf1 -all"
yyyyyy.your/your-providers-domain "v=spf1 A -all"
africanexpatsradio.com "v=spf1 A:yyyyyy.your/your-providers-domain -all"
